Financial Theory (ECON 251)
This lecture gives a brief history of the young field of financial theory, which began in business schools quite separate from economics, and of my growing interest in the field and in Wall Street. A cornerstone of standard financial theory is the efficient markets hypothesis, but that has been discredited by the financial crisis of 2007-09. This lecture describes the kinds of questions standard financial theory nevertheless answers well. It also introduces the leverage cycle as a critique of standard financial theory and as an explanation of the crisis. The lecture ends with a class experiment illustrating a situation in which the efficient markets hypothesis works surprisingly well.

In this video we describe the volatility of stocks and the inherit risk associated with investing in stocks. We also give our opinion on how to beat the inevitable ups and downs of the stock market.
Did you know that a share of Google , which sold for $506 in 2011, could have been bought in 2004 for about $100?
Apple selling at $336 mid-year in 2011 could have been bought for $3.02 in 1984.
And what about Microsoft? Selling at $26 on June 30, 2011, Microsoft could have been bought, adjusted for stock splits, in 1986 for 8 cents!
Make a few investments like these in your 401(k) and you could retire early! But don't give your notice quite yet.

Most people think of investing as buying a stock (or other asset) and making money when its price goes up - but it’s also possible to make a profit when a stock price goes down. This process is called short selling (or shorting).
Short selling isn’t all peaches and cream. There are opportunities for high returns, but as usual, these come with high risks. The big risk here is that there is no limit to your losses. When you buy a stock, you can only lose the amount that you invested. But when you short, your losses are infinite because there is theoretically no end to how high a stock’s price can rise.
Short selling isn’t for everyone. It requires a lot of time and research, and a desire for high risks and high returns. Short selling is primarily used for speculator looking to make a profit when the market goes down or investing looking to hedge their position.

Finance and capital markets on Khan Academy: Hedge funds have absolutely nothing to do with shrubbery. Their name comes from the fact that early hedge funds (and some current ones) tried to "hedge" their exposure to the market (so they could, in theory, do well in an "up" or "down" market as long as they were good at picking the good companies). Today, hedge funds represent a huge class investment funds. They are far less regulated than, say, mutual funds. In exchange for this, they aren't allowed to market or take investments from "unsophisticated" investors. Some use their flexibility to mitigate risk, other use it to amplify it.

Do we care what happens to our loved ones (if they really are "loved" than the answer is obvious). This tutorial walks us through the options to insure our families against losing us. The reason why we stuck it in the "investment vehicles" topic is because it can also be an investment that we can use before we die.

Finance and capital markets on Khan Academy: Hedge funds have absolutely nothing to do with shrubbery. Their name comes from the fact that early hedge funds (and some current ones) tried to "hedge" their exposure to the market (so they could, in theory, do well in an "up" or "down" market as long as they were good at picking the good companies). Today, hedge funds represent a huge class investment funds. They are far less regulated than, say, mutual funds. In exchange for this, they aren't allowed to market or take investments from "unsophisticated" investors. Some use their flexibility to mitigate risk, other use it to amplify it.

Clicked here http://www.MBAbullshit.com/ and OMG wow! I'm SHOCKED how easy..
As can be seen on http://mbabullshit.com/blog/efficient-market-hypothesis/ about EMH, stocks inside the stock market ordinarily rise in worth when you can find excellent news with regard to a stock's company. Conversely, they regularly move down if you can find not so good news about a business enterprise.
Why? If good news relating to a stock comes out (as though, for example, information in which the firm obtained a lot of profits), thereafter each and every one suddenly wants to buy the stock, to make sure that they will be able to gain from the larger proceeds.
Once any individual works to purchase the stock, the elevated "demand" for your stock brings up the worth.As a result, an awesome way to earn money with the use of stocks would be to buy the stock when something good transpires with the company (illustration: it strikes oil) but before the excellent news comes out to the masses... and while the stock price is still low. (After the firm strikes oil, you might have to wait one or even 2 days for the general public to know about it from the news.)
And next, after the excellent news has come out, everybody else will attempt to pay for the stock, and the stock price will climb. In the event the stock price is already up, you'll be able to sell your stock at a significant price and generate a superb profit.In this brand of scenario, whom would you say must have a great reward? The best buddy of the company chief or the universal masses?
Obviously, the finestpreferredbest mate of the enterprise chief is at a very good convenience! He can easily learn via the chief executive-chumin relation to the firm finding,hitting oil prior to everyone else! And then, he is able to buy the stock when it's still at a reduced bargain.
Then, he is able to in simple terms wait one or 2 days for the reports to get going to the universal masses and for the universal public to kick off ordering the share; which generally is likely to drive up the share price. So next, the chief executive's chum could basically sell at the higher rate and get an easy swift profit. Nonetheless suppose... information traveled veryremarkablyremarkablyveryvery rapidly? What if, as soon as the firm struck oil, the whole masses would know about it basically immediately; really as fast as the firm chief's buddy? How?
Maybe the news media is actually indeed "streamlined" in acquiring and relaying information (just like those "established" journalists). Or alternatively maybe, regardless of if the news channel is sluggish, social media (for example Facebook or Twitter) helps transmit the data notably swiftly (perhaps a person at the oil well instantly tweets it and it gets retweeted plenty of occasions over the globe in just seconds). In this case, will the company chief executive's chum remain to have better chances? Obviously, the answer is no.
This is the crux of the EMH or Efficient Market Hypothesis. When industry informationinformationinformation travels particularly fast, powerfully as well as more or less immediately (featuring "strong" market efficiency), company officers, their friends, and additional guys utilizing "inside" resources and info do not develop better chances more than the general public in relation to investing in shares.The converse is moreover thought to be right. In the event that market facts travels steadily and notably inefficiently (having "weak" market efficiency), then company officers, their close friends and additional guys utilizing "inside" information have a great leverage versus the broad public on the subject of flipping in shares.
There may be additionally a scheme in between the two extremes above. In the event that market information travels not too swiftly although not very sluggish either, then firm officers and their friends own some advantage against the broad masses when it comes to trading in shares of stock. This is termed "semi-strong" market efficiency.
To put it briefly: Institution officers and "buddies" of company officers only ownownownhaveown an advantage in the event that facts flows gradually over time and "inefficiently." In the event that the information in the market moves just about instantly and "efficiently," then firm officers and close mates do not obtain an edge and are not able to easily "trade on the news broadcast." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h5JDftgykcg
